LOUISVILLE, Ky. Feb. 1S.-A Courier
journal special from Sharpe, Marshall
county, in the southwestern part of
the state, relates the discovery of IL
large cave by two young men while
engaged in preparing piece of new
land for crop. A partial eXplana-
ton developed fact that the cave was
made up of many rooms of great cx.
tent. A complete exploration will be
impossible until certain large rocks
are blasted or broken away. In one of
the chambers were found two human
skeletons and about 5000 in gold and
silver coin and quality Of
silverwarc. This newly found cave is
believed to have been the hiding place
during the late war Of band of
guerrillas known as "Bloody Bill

AMEND NEUTRALITY.

ST, PETERSBURG, Feb. lS.-It is
semi-oflicially stated in Russia gov
ernment circles that the conviction is
gaining ground that war between
France and Germany is inevitable. In
addition, it is said, OF fresh defeat OF
France might involve disastrous re-
suits to Russia. The cars govern
ment will, in the event OF war, pre-
serve entire liberty of action. 1t will
not support France as an ally but
maybe form n reserved attitude to- pre-
vent Germany from sending the whole
OF her army west OF the Rhine, and
even if France should be defeated she
would be attenuated as much us possi-
bic from the effects of the disaster. For
these reasons, it is declared, Russia
will await the outcome of the different
phases of the Bulgarian crisis with the
greatest calmness, and act in such II
way as to avoid being involved with
Austria or England ut the moment
when France and Germany commence
hostilities.

LOUISVILLE, Feb. 1S-For several
days committee of the Indiana legis-
lature have been investigating the af-
fairs of the southern Indiana state
prison at Jeflersonvillc and the obser-
vations of the investigators as given
to the press have been anything but
ilattering to the management. The
fault was bad cells and the finances
loosely managed. To-day Capt. An
drew Jackson Howard, the warden,
rendered his resignation, which was
accepted by the board of directors. 1t
was developed later that Howard's ac-
counts were largely in arrears. AS
sistant Auditor of State. John w.
Coonse, who is an expert accountant
and whe has been investigating the
books OF the prison in connection with
the legislative committee, states that
Howard's deficiency will probably
amount to between $4,000 and $780,
600. 1t is said also that the committee
will report that great nhumanity has
been practiced upon persons under
Howard.

MEDICAL LAKE-SONGE HISTORICAL
POI MIS-,

MEDICAL LAKE-SOME HISTORICAL
POINTS.
etMedical Lake Is small body of
water situated about sixteen miles
southwest of Spokane Falls. Its
principal medical properties are
bOraX, alkali and salts. 1t is called
Medical Lake because i,J waters
have such great curative powers
when applied externally. 1t was
first brought into public notice in
the year 1871 by Mr.. Lefevre, who
took ranch ON the shores OF the
lake, where he still resides. Mr..
Lefevre was the first person who
ever used the water for q medical
bath and found 1t was excellent for
rheumatism. The chemicals of the
water were manufactured into med
ical powder by Messrs. Harwood 4
Middaugh in 1882. The first soap
was made by Messrs Badcr & Beaut-
ner in 1884. When the wind blows
IL lashes the water of this lake into a
foam resembling soap suds. This Is
especially noticeable along the shores
where the foam piles up In masses.
This is caused by the great amount of
alkali and bOraX in the water.
Medical Labe Is fast becoming a
very pleasureable summer resort,
aud quite Il town has sprung up on
its shores.
Almost every noted American lake
has its Indian legend. The legend
of Medical Lake runs somewhat as
follows: A young Indian by the
nane OF Fightiug Panther was engag-
cd TO q young damsel by the name
Of Mary. Fighting Panther went to
the nearest town (which was Fort
Colville,) to get his sweetheart some
soap, perfumery, hair-oil and other
articles for her toilet. He arrived at
the Fort In safety, and made hia psir-
.i,-,., then started on bis return
